Below The Face Blue
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS
You are an actor. You have acted in a blockbuster: Multi Wars III, but after that, your career just started to drop down. You only have one person in your life: a virtual girl called Asami.
She helps you everytime you need it, but you know you are only having a bad time and you will leave her eventually. When the producer of the series «Blue Love» calls you, you are skeptical about the role. In the audition he tells you: «you are the chosen one»; you also recognize Sakiko in the studios, an actress you met before in the sets of Multi Wars III. You fell easily in love with Sakiko.
Asami, in the other hand is acting weird: she says she loves you, she repeats again and again that she wants to be with you. Then she appears in one dream, where she tells you that someone is helping her to be real.

This game is really dope so far!I haven't come across any bugs from my runs(which I played it about 11 times so far!) the only questions I have about it are 1) Although released, will this game still get patches? 2) How many endings are there, and is there a "good ending"? I've gotten the ones where I "lose my identity", read the thoughts of Sakiko, and the standard ambiguous end. Each of these runs end with Hasanami. Some context seems to get lost in translation, so i'm not sure what actions affect the endings other than looking in the mirror, and interacting with Sakiko.
TL:DR Dope game, How do I reach other endings(if they exist), and any planned patches for this?
Hi, I did enjoy your game a lot, and I think you have a great start going here! The one thing is the English made it a little hard for me to follow along with the story at times. I think if you teamed up with someone who is a native speaker, you could probably make it even better!
Also, at one point the game did error out. The full traceback is below, but it appears it was unable to locate an image file. It should probably be easy to fix, so I thought I'd let you know I was eventually able to continue after hitting ignore, but it was producing other interesting glitches after that!
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

Thank you so much for playing :D! We appreciate your comment and we'll check the error.
To be honest when I stumbled upon it I thought that it was actually part of the game itself similar to how doki doki broke the fourth wall and modified your computer's files but overall this game is amazing and definitely worth the time
